Built for controlled fastening in production assembly, repair stations, and confined-access bolt-up work, the Cleco 24RAA23AM3 clutch shut-off pneumatic angle nutrunner combines a compact 90-degree head with repeatable torque control. Its 9.0 - 17.0 ft-lbs torque range supports medium-duty fastening where consistent rundown matters more than breakaway power, while the 600 RPM free speed helps operators run fasteners down efficiently before final clutch shut-off.
The 3/8" square drive accepts compatible square-drive sockets for nuts, bolts, and production fasteners. A clutch shut-off mechanism automatically stops the tool when the preset torque is reached, helping reduce over-tightening on repeat assembly work. The collar reverse control lets the operator change direction at the tool, and the lever start gives deliberate activation for bench, fixture, and line-side fastening tasks.

Tech Tip: To increase tool performance, extend tool life, and lessen repair costs, use it with a Filter-Regulator-Lubricator FRL)
Applications:
- Assembly lines and work cells — tightening nuts and bolts where controlled shut-off torque is required.
- Automotive and off-road equipment assembly — fastening brackets, covers, guards, and mechanical subassemblies in restricted areas.
- Appliance and general manufacturing — repeat fastening on production joints where a preset torque window helps maintain consistency.
- Industrial maintenance and MRO — removing and reinstalling medium-size fasteners during equipment service.
- Fixture and bench work — using the 90-degree angle head to access fasteners around housings, frames, and tooling obstructions.
FAQs:
- Q: What does clutch shut-off mean on the Cleco 24RAA23AM3?
A: Clutch shut-off means the tool stops when the preset torque is reached. This helps improve repeatability on production fastening compared with relying only on operator feel. - Q: What fasteners does the 3/8" square drive fit?
A: The 3/8" square drive is made for compatible 3/8" drive sockets. Socket size should be selected to match the nut or bolt head being fastened. - Q: Is this tool for tightening or breaking loose stuck bolts?
A: This is a controlled-torque angle nutrunner, not an impact wrench. It is best used for assembly and controlled rundown within its 9.0 - 17.0 ft-lbs torque range. - Q: Why choose an angle nutrunner instead of an inline nutrunner?
A: The angle head gives access to fasteners near walls, brackets, frames, and housings where a straight inline tool may not align with the joint. - Q: What air pressure is the tool rated at?
A: Cleco lists tool performance at 90 PSI / 620 kPa air pressure. A properly sized air supply and FRL help maintain consistent fastening performance.
